A schedule of sorts cont.

October 7th, 2008 Posted in Uncategorized

Once the rounding is done it is usually near to 1 pm and I head to the guest house for lunch.  Lunch consists of chapatas (small circular flat bread similiar to tortillas), a curried vegetable, rice, and dahl (lentil soup).  And apples which everyone seems to have a fun time cutting up.  Lunch time tends to last until about 3.

Afterwards there is generally a short time spent in the outpatient side and then rounding again on the inpatients.  Dinner is at 7 and that tends to be the time we finish.  Dinner is more variable but generally has curried vegetables, boiled potatoes, a meat of some sort, and some sort of dessert such as a sweet porridge.  Last night we had a delicious coconut frozen milk thing.  Night-times kind of depend on which day it is but if nothing is happening we may hang out til about nine.  Then I tend to go to my room and read for a bit.  I also fit in washing one of my outfits somewhere during the day.

Weekly fluctuations include Bible study Friday night from 7:30 until about 10.  I hear that on Tues and Thurs at 6 we have some medical conference of sorts.  Sat might be a half day.  Sunday we have two chruch services; one in Hindi at 9 and the other in English at 5:30.

And that is it!

    Glad to hear you are keeping busy, even though it is a bit of a routine day after day. Thanks for the e-mails too. The days will go quickly, I am sure, until you are back home. Enjoy the experience!
